Temsirolimus therapy in a patient with lung adenocarcinoma harboring an FBXW7 mutation.

We report the identification of an FBXW7 mutation in a patient with adenocarcinoma of the lung, whose tumor had previously been shown to be EGFR and ALK wild type and who had previously progressed on multiple lines of systemic therapy. She experienced both clinical and radiographic benefit from treatment with the mTOR inhibitor temsirolimus.
